Responding to Climate Change - RTCC

Responding to Climate Change Limited (RTCC) was founded in 2002 by James Ramsey. Our mission is to raise awareness about climate change. We are a non-profit organisation that is an official Observer to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), and the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD) (UNCCD). We also hold “Special Advisory Status” with The United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC). One of RTCC’s expertise is facilitating public and private partnerships and although we are an independent organisation, we are entirely funded by governments, international businesses, intergovernmental agencies, research institutes and donor organisations. Since 2002, RTCC has formed a number of significant partnerships, including partnerships with the United Nations Rio Conventions, governments from around the world, as well as the World Bank, Climate Investment Funds (CIFs), and UN Habitat. Our most recent and unique partnership has been with the Islamic World Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (ICESCO). Together we have hosted a series of televised events and interviews at our pavilion for COP29, all of which are available on our on-demand video channel Climate Change TV.
